My New Home

So I have been reading up on the html thing and I have built my very own web site! Take a look and tell me what you think! I am still working on it as I learn more stuff! It has been a challenging road learning to do this on my own. I have pulled my hair out numerous times! I think it will pay off in the end!
Thanks,
Carol

What You Give A Woman

Not really related to my business but thought to share it anyway!

Quote of the day:


Whatever you give a woman, she will make greater. If you give her a house, she'll give you a home. If you give her groceries, she'll give you a meal. If you give her a smile, she'll give you her heart. If you give her sperm, she'll give you a baby. She multiplies and enlarges what is given to her. So, if you give her any crap, be ready to receive a ton of s**t.

I love these earrings! I bought the green and black beads because they looked really cool. It looks like the green and black are liquids blending together! I sat all day thinking how I could use them and came up with these! Hope you like them. I am looking at making a bracelet to go with! $5.00!!!

So, I had the day off today thinking I would have the whole day, all alone, to create! Only to get stumped. I really need new inspiration! Here is what I came up with today, so far!

Stupid Crazy Cold!

So, I hear last night that the kids wouldn't have school today! I think to myself, it is supposed to snow or blizzard or something. No. It's just going to be -4 degrees. And that will be the high!! I leave for work this morning and it is -17degrees. My car threw fits when I went to start it! At least it did start after a short protest! I get to work and hear reports of several call ins because cars won't start. Why couldn't my car not start???!! :(( Any way. I get a call from my mom who lives in New Mexico. She said every time she hates the weather out there she hears what it's doing hear and she doesn't feel so bad. Whatever! She asked how cold it was right now. I said it's 8 below stupid! Worst weather in 40 years they say. Great. I've lived hear for 14 years and every year I ask why I am still hear. Oh yeah. Cuz my ex won't let me leave the state with our children! :((
Winter Frost Bracelet. If only outside looked as pretty!

Any one out there?

So, I am just starting my own business, kinda. I started making jewelry and thought, ya know, I might need to sell some of this so I can buy new stuff!! Seemed like a good idea at the time. A lot harder than I expected. You have to advertise, advertise, advertise! There is so much competition for jewelry too!! It seems I will be lucky if I get a sale! I sold one on Craig's List! Someone told me to do a blog. I must be really out of it! Does anyone ever read these things? What do people write in their blogs? Can you really advertise a business in a blog? What else can you do? I got on twitter. Seems like shouting into outer space. Moves too fast. So here I am rambling on with the high probability no one will read this. I did the myspace thing too, myspace.com/caroljeanscreations. Not much going on there. So as I struggle to get my name out there hopefully you can help me out and check out my sites.
